Our available assignments are based on the needs of our clients. However, new jobs come in on a regular basis. We will contact you about a job assignment when we have a request that matches your skills. When we call you, we will give you a job description that includes duties, location, hourly pay, and dress code. Please consider all of these factors carefully before accepting. During the phone conversation, please let us know if you have any appointments (such as a medical appointment or job interview) or scheduled time away during the assignment. Please let us know this information before you accept the opportunity. Any time off during the assignment (except for emergencies) must be approved in advance by Perfect Timing. If you accept the assignment, you are expected to remain on the assignment until the work has been completed.

If you are asked to do something that is drastically different than the assignment we described to you, or if you are uncomfortable in the work environment for any reason, contact Perfect Timing immediately. Please do not discuss the issue with the company; you are Perfect Timing’s employee and it is our job to resolve any issues.

Even though you are working on an assignment, you are an employee of Perfect Timing and represent us on the job. If anything comes up and you want to talk to us, please call. Perfect Timing staff is available from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm Monday through Friday. Feel free to leave a message after hours. Please call us if:

You are running late or you are unable to report to an assignment.

You have questions about your timesheet, hours, pay rate or the duration of your assignment.

Changes have been made to your schedule or your availability.

Your assignment has been extended or completed.

Your duties or work hours change while you are on assignment.

If you are working on an assignment at a company and notice that they have a full-time position that you are qualified for, please call us. All inquiries regarding direct-hire positions must be made through our offices and should not be discussed with our clients. Any direct-hire job opportunities that you find through our clients must go through Perfect Timing.

Timesheets are to be submitted to your supervisor by the end of the work week each Friday (or on the last day of your assignment for the week) via the WebCenter portal.

Payroll is run Monday mornings. In order for you to be paid, we need to have your approved timecard by 10am Monday morning. It is your responsibility to make sure that your timecard is approved each week. This may mean you need to remind your supervisor to approve your timecard. You can check the status of your timecard by logging back into the web portal.We cannot issue you a paycheck without an approved timecard.

If the company you are working for does NOT USE WebCenter, the following procedures are in place. If you don’t have a paper timecard, either download a timecard from this site or call us and we will fax one to you. Please submit a separate completed timecard for each assignment weekly. All time cards must be signed by a supervisor and faxed by 5:00 pm each Friday. Fax the timecard to the Larkspur office at (415) 461-7551.

Complete all of the information requested (your name, the company name, the week-ending date, and the hours worked). The work week is Monday to Sunday. Be sure to sign the card and have your supervisor sign the card. If your timecard is submitted late, your paycheck will be processed with the following week’s payroll. Please note: overtime work (working more than 8 hours per day or over 40 hours in a week) must be approved by Perfect Timing in advance. Contact us immediately if you think you will be working more than 8 hours on any day.

Paychecks are mailed out every Tuesday at 3:00 p.m. If you would like to pick up your paycheck on Wednesday at the Larkspur Branch, you may do so by calling us at (415) 461-6450 by noon on the Tuesday before. If your check does not arrive by mail within seven days, please notify us. We are unable to reissue a check until it has been missing for one full week. If there is a Monday or Tuesday Holiday, this will delay paycheck processing by one full day.
